Higashiyama Ward, 0.3 mi from Awata Shrine

"The hotel was in a peaceful location of Kyoto very close to the Philosophers path and surrounding temples. The roof terrace and complimentary happy hour drinks was a wonderful edition at the end of long day of sight seeing to soak up the views and relax. The breakfast was excellent - a perfect balance of fresh vegetables, baked bread and fruit and yogurt. And the staff were so helpful with local restaurant recommendations. Would definately recommend"

Top Awata Shrine Hotel Reviews

Hotel Musse Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi Meitetsu

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, beautiful hotel, spacious room."

Cross Hotel Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was absolutely beautiful in every way. The location was perfect. Not too far from the city center, and not noisy at all during the night. We are a family of 3 and this hotel met every single accommodation and need that we could possibly want!! Do not hesitate to stay here, you will not be disappointed!!"

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was in a great location near Kyomizu-dera temple and other sites and adjacent to little quaint and traditional side streets. The guest laundry was a great amenity. The breakfast buffet was out of this world. Staff was pleasant and professional. The lobby coffee shop was super cool and even had a DJ spinning one morning. The room was lovely and modern. Nothing negative about this place!"

THE GATE HOTEL KYOTO TAKASEGAWA by HULIC

The Westin Miyako Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hosting, clean, staff are extremely helpful and friendly."

SOLARIA Nishitetsu Hotel Kyoto Premier

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was awesome! Friendly and helpful staff. The onsen was a nice experience. The room was large for a Japan hotel. The only room for improvement feedback I have is to have them have more washer and dryer machines. I had to wait 50 minutes just to get a washer. The dryer setting on the first cycle doesn’t dry clothes so two other people in front of me had to do another dry cycle. I also had to do an extra dry cycle. It was a little ridiculous having to wait so long to do some laundry. I think there could be a better system or more machines for guests. The location was perfect! Right next to a train and subway station which made it super easy to get around to all of our destinations. There is also tons of shopping and wonderful restaurants in walking distance. Overall, this was our favorite place that we stayed at on our trip. It was very nice!!"

Hotel Gracery Kyoto Sanjo

10/10 Excellent

"Kabuki room decor is awesome! Location is very convenient. The facial amenities already provided in room were very much appreciated. Although laundry machines are available, I would discourage use of dryer due to its limited (1/2 load) capacity. Overall, our stay was excellent!"

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing amenities of hot spring and ramen bar late night options. Its trendy japanese tatami style room which make it fun to experience."
